It Feels Like Only Yesterday!

Hey everyone! Today is a very special day in our family. Our first "Grands" were born thirteen years ago! They were about a month early, so we got well acquainted with the NICU.

Riley Paige -- 2lbs. 8ozs.
14 1/2 in.

Taylor Nicole -- 3lbs. 8ozs.
15 1/2 in.

Yes, that is a Beanie Baby -- do you remember those? The Phoenix Suns would make regular stops by the NICU at Phoenix Children's Hospital to drop off preemie clothing & Beanie Babies. The little Beanies were used to cradle & position the tiny little babies. Our little girls were so incredibly small, but absolutely perfect in every way!

Just a few years later, they were already growing too fast for this Nana. Oh my goodness, they were a couple of busy-bees, let me tell you! What one didn't think of, the other one would.

How did they get this big? Where-o-where did the time go? I do miss those adorable little babies, but these beautiful young ladies will charm your socks off! I think we'll keep them!
